Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church

About this church

Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church in Lincolnton holds a traditional Lutheran worship service on Sunday mornings at 10 a.m.; visitors may want to confirm the time on the church's website before attending. The congregation belongs to the North American Lutheran Church (NALC) and describes its identity as orthodox and confessional Lutheran. The church says it has been serving God and the surrounding community since 1790, and its beliefs page points visitors to NALC resources.

After worship, around 11:15 a.m., the church holds Corner Stone Cafe, its Sunday School hour for adults and children. The children's session includes music, a Bible lesson and other activities, and the fall schedule has combined confirmation students and adults in a study on what it means to be Lutheran. The events calendar mixes fellowship and outreach, including meals after worship, youth and family visits with caroling at local nursing homes, a fall hayride and a trunk-or-treat evening. Past sermons are archived on the website, which also posts the congregation's newsletter, The Rock. The church is on Long Shoals Road in Lincolnton, and questions can go to the church office at 704-922-5487.
